Will I be able to get my funds in 180 days?

[neal1219]

Last year I sold video games that I was receiving through a wholesaler on eBay, they were all retail and legit copies. I was not able to provide PayPal with what they wanted because I did not have all of my invoices for the games and my wholesaler only kept invoices up through the past three months and PayPal said I would need to have an invoice for EVERY game I sold. So they put my account on hold. This is the message I got.

PayPal is constantly working to ensure security by regularly screening the accounts in our system. We recently reviewed your account, and we need more information to help us provide you with secure service. Until we can collect this information, your access to sensitive account features will be limited. We would like to restore your access as soon as possible, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Why is my account access limited?

Your account access has been limited for the following reason(s):

Jxxx 15, 2010: We have observed activity in this account that is unusual or potentially high risk.

(Your case ID for this reason is PP-000-.)

(Your case ID for this reason is PP-000-.)

I am worried because it does not say that my funds will be allowed to be withdrawn after 180 days. Does PayPal HAVE to release my funds after the 180 days? I have hundreds of dollars in my PayPal that I do not want to lose. Also, is the most I can take out if they let me still $500 a month? If someone could help me out that would be great! Thanks.

Hey neal1219,

Sorry to hear that your pay-pal account got limited.

It's scary and frustrating. If your worried you are not going to get your money back don't be. You will definitely get access to your pay-pal account to withdraw after the 180days. Your account will still be limited but you will have withdrawal access.

Yeah you wont have access to receive funds or send funds at this time.

It's weird cause my pay-pal account was suspended for the same reason, I had $700.00 at the time, after 6 months I got the money back..
They needed every statement as well. When I called I just said they I was buying through beltal.com. My account will completely restored two days later.
*scratches head and looks around*..

Good luck.

Were you able to get the $700 all at one time or was that as a $500 payment and a $200 payment? Also thank you both for your replies.

Add a bank acct you can access if it doesn't have one already. Has worked for me for a while now.

If it has a verified VCC you will be able to get everything at once. If not just add one. This has worked for me several times.

Did you get the 180 days notice email from Paypal? Or just wait 180 days after the account was limited? Thanks
